Unauthenticated media deletion via unchecked revert endpoint

Published Jan 7, 2026 · Updated Jan 7, 2026

Missing authorization in Aharonyan WP Front User Submit 5.0.0 and earlier allows remote attackers to delete arbitrary media attachments via REST. The /wp-json/bfe/v1/revert endpoint accepts an attacker-selected attachment identifier and deletes the referenced media object without checking a WordPress capability. No login or user interaction is required, and the reported consequence is limited to deletion of media attachments.
